Nicole Bring on the Tinsel & Spark My Mistletoe

I spotted a couple of the Nicole by OPIholiday polishes at Meijer recently, but they were laying all by themselves on a shelf, so I'm not sure what type of display to tell you to look for! Bring on the Tinsel is filled with tiny multi colored glitter in a clear base. The silver, red, blue, and green glitter combine to remind me of Christmas lights, making this perfect for the holidays.

Above & Below: The top photo was taken outdoors, while the ones below were taken with an Ott lamp. I only used 2 coats and all in all, I'd say I had good coverage with a fairly even application. Three coats would be ideal, or it could easily be used as a top coat over another shade. Like many clear based glitters, the formula has a somewhat jelly texture, but it dried quickly.

Below: Before I removed Bring on the Tinsel, I added one quick coat of the other Nicole shade I picked up, Spark My Mistletoe. This is poor lighting, but if that look doesn't say Happy Holidays, I don't know what does!

Below: If you're wondering how the Nicole compares with another holiday favorite this year, China GlazeParty Hearty, here's a bottle comparison showing just how different they are. The Nicole is more blue with finer glitter, while the China Glaze has more green in it, as well as a variety of sizes and shapes for the glitter.

Below:Spark My Mistletoe is shown here using 2 coats over China GlazeFrosty. This primarily red glitter with secondary multi colored larger glitter seems to have a bit of a foil finish, making it another festive shade for the upcoming holidays.

Below: This shows two coats by itself, and I think when I use this the next time, I'll use it alone and go with 3 coats.

Even though I'm not a fan of Nicole's bottle shape, I do think they come out with some beautiful shades, and these holiday polishes are a good example. Have you seen these in a display? I'm wondering if any of the other shades are worth hunting down! Let me know your thoughts if you've come across these yet.
